Scott and Steph met at Arise Music Festival in 2016. It was a gathering of new and old friends, Scott had just moved from Rhode Island a few weeks prior and Stephanie was there with her close girlfriends. One night Scott tripped over a tent string, lost his 'flip-flop" aka "slippah' and came charging into camp exclaiming that he had lost his slippah to Stephanie. Stephanie thought he had quite literally worn slippers to a music festival and ignored him. After a night of watching the sun come up and lots of laughter Scott went out and returned with his shoe, which he explained was he only pair he had for the entire weekend. Stephanie finally realizing he was referring to "flip flops" and not slippers cracked up in laughter. Few words were said but none were needed.
Steph has a thing for 3's. Scott waited until the morning of their third anniversary to pop the question. Their anniversary tradition is to go to a hot springs before the holiday madness for some peace and relaxation. On the morning of December 21, 2019 they woke up extremely early, watched Elf, got breakfast in the quaint town of Buena Vista and then headed to the infinity pool hot springs surrounded by mountains. Steph was stretching, doing yoga, and floating- reaching a very zen state while Scott was secretly stressed out. Steph loves the water so Scott got onto the step in the pool and got on one knee, presenting a golden rose and then a gorgeous champagne sapphire ring. Steph didn't see it coming but of course the answer was yes.
